When we first got our chameleon we left a light on at night for heat, the past two nights I've turned it off (after getting advice on here to turn it off) and she sleeps to go straight to sleep until I turn it back on in the morning (of course I don't know the in between hours since I'm not...
Since our little girl's new cage will be here tomorrow we wanted to get her a ficus this weekend, are there any places I should avoid getting one or does it not matter much? Also I need to cover the dirt with rocks, right?
We have two Dart frogs :D
They have been very simple to care for, they were actually our first frog. We don't touch them ever and we bought a flightless fruit fly kit type thing from a pet store and they breed themselves but they do eat like little pigs. About 40-50 each a day.
Petco did pay for the visit at least, they said they would cover it since she still wasn't doing well. What baffles me is the manager who sold us her has one himself, so he should have known better!
Well the Vet visit went okay I suppose. He was an exotic pet one but he said she should be more colorful and that she is kind of skinny, which I agree with the skinny but thought because she is a female and young her colors wouldn't be all there yet? Gave me some supplement for her called...
She hasn't been much, she ate one cricket the first day and I'm afraid maybe some of the substrate maybe got in her with it. I didn't know she wasn't supposed to have that, she also drank out of a bowl of water (also didn't know, ugh) and maybe from there? She also ate two wax worms and meal...
I've read the white in their poop is normal for pee, so what is this liquid? I was holding her, trying to get her to eat, and it came out. Also she seems really skinny to me.
Sorry I am posting so much, I don't know nearly enough.
Is it normal for a Chameleon to wake up super dark compared to their normal color? I am getting very worried, her new enclosure doesn't come until tomorrow and she still hasn't been eating except the first day she was here she ate one cricket and then the third she ate 3 worms. We are on day 6...
That is awful. We just got our Panther Chameleon a few days ago from there, they gave us horrible information on her, I'm thinking I'm going to take them up on the paid-for vet visit to make sure she is okay.
How often should my panther chameleon be eating? Right now all we have are meal worms, wax worms, crickets, and flightless fruit flies but I just placed an order for butter worms.
Also where can I find silk worms? I live in Washington. Do I need to order those online too?
It was in another thread but I got a lot of bad info from a pet store, the red light is gone and I'm getting stuff for her to have a better enclosure as well.
